    Monetary value isn’t relevant, only manipulating people. Hexbear is the largest community of people of that political persuasion.

    In 2015-2017 they targeted gamers in online games.

      they’re not tho. Reddit’s communism subs are still larger.

      When you say that these fringe communities have government shills, you just look like a nutter, equally of a nutter as to when they think this community has government shills.

        As noted, that’s exactly what people said about every community ever. “Shills? Manipulation? Nobody would do that!” except that various world governments funded divisions to do exactly that, it turns out.

          Can you list any website or community that has less than 10k active posters that has shills?

            Why would I be able to do that? As I mentioned about the roundup thing, that doesn’t matter. They just search for anything relevant.

              So you don’t have any evidence that there are shills on lemmy. Then why even argue that point if you don’t have anything?

              There’s no shills on Lemmy, dude, quit being paranoid

                  aight dude, no need to freak out. just saying that it’s waaay unlikely for government shills to operate on a small internet forum compared to large social media.
